The key is \ fiat and the tone is cxcep-
tonnlly fine and musical, the mauufartur-
ers having made every effort To attain ex-
cellence in this respect
While the gift Is nominally made to the
Congregational church and society. it j,
virtually to the town, for all will receive
enjoyment and benefit from it,, and the
thanks of all are due to Mr. l'lagg for thi,
act 10y which he honors not only us but al
50 himself. Very few comparatively of
those who have the capacity to acquire
have the disposition and grace to give.
Blessed Is he who has both and fortunate
indeed is that community which hath re
membrance in hi, mind
As the clear toned melodious notes sound
ont along our hillsides, and rcverberate up
ami down our valleys let there be a thought
of sad remembrance for the one whose life
went out ere the MONDAY was reached.
and alNl let there come sense of approv-
INK thauktulness to one who has ~ gru-
clously remembered the home of his youth
